Bowl of death, Murry River Cohuna, Vic.
The grid consisted of 7 race crazy mates - Circa 2007

I shudder at the very sight of that photo Rog, it brings back the nightmare of the simple crash that led to my second worst ever motorcycle injury. I've related it before so the short version is....speedo clad me aboard mates XR75 riding up a similar grade to Mark Hill in the above photo......mate shouts "wheelie Firko".....Firko responds......resulting in the sight of me being spat off the back, while the XR does a complete arc over my head with hands still firmly planted on the grips, ripping both shoulders out of their sockets. The result was two dislocated shoulders, the right worse than the left and requiring surgery then two months off work with both arms in slings........I won't describe the degree of difficulty certain sanitary duties entailed with two arms in slings. ::).

Grew up in Cohuna, used to go riding out on the roads to the Murry. I only have a fuzzy memory of where that was. ???
